The College of the Desert Tournament started in 1987, opening the three day early February tournament defeating San Diego City 9-4 and Chaffey 10-3. In 1990, the tournament was renamed the Tim Patterson Memorial Tournament carried through 2003, returning from 2005 to 2010. Tim Patterson was a COD student athlete at the time of his passing (May 31, 1987) and the tournament was named in his honor.
